Mrs. Rose,
you are a phenomenal teacher, I know that we as your
students have not really internalized what a great teacher
you are and how much knowledge that you have given us.

As your
students we are far more advanced than many practioners. I
say this because I have attended many Alternative medicines
seminars, and Women as Natural Healers session, you would be
surprised at the fact that many "practioners" do not know
half as much as what you have taught us! When I talk about
you, your classes and what I have learned a large crowd
forms around me, they all want to know more.

Many
alternative healers only use dried herbs, and do not
recognize the herbs in their natural forms. Aromatherapy is
foreign to many of them. I now fully understand who you are
and how you have blessed your students with your knowledge
and experience. I truly thank you. -- Talibah. 3-10-07

PROFESSIONAL
BLENDING OF ESSENTIAL OILSThis was one of the most informative, fun and best
classes that I have taken! Our teacher was the esteemed
Jeanne Rose. Jeanne is not only a highly sought after
instructor but also a master aroma therapist. Over 15 hours
during a weekend, our class learned how to describe a
fragrance with a scent vocabulary associated with colors. We
familiarized our noses with about 45 different essential
oils from the familiar (lavender, rosemary) to the not so
familiar (Owyhee, spikenard). Our class made about 9
different blends for various purposes. Among them were
blends for energizing, relaxing, therapeutic and even for
meditation. We also created our very own perfume that would
take about 2 weeks to mature. Everyone had completely
different combinations and it was interesting to smell each
one of them!

I highly
recommend this class to anyone as a starting off point in
their fragrance journey. The best investment you can make
for yourself, if you truly want to give yourself the
building blocks to better understanding of blending
essential oils, is to take this one of a kind workshop. This
course will give you a foundation in your aromatic journey
that you can utilize in your day-to-day life as a base for
your career in aromatherapy, perfumery or just for fun!…GL

"Dear
Jeanne Rose,
The class I took in Tucson on Aromatherapy I
have to say really did change my life. As a soapmaker,
I was mostly thinking of learning how to create new
blends for the fragrance of my soaps. I am a huge fan
of natural medicine but when it came to aromatherapy, I have
never given it much credit. For that I
apologize. Not only do I believe now that it works, it is my
first choice in health care. Creating a new
blend for soap has taken a much lower rung on my ladder
now. Thank you so much for your classes and your
work."

"Jeanne
Rose's Herbal and Aromatherapy courses changed my life.

They afforded not only a cornucopia of knowledge for my mind
but also for my body and soul. Knowledge that changed not
only the way I view the world around me but also changed the
way I live my life. They are an invitation to step over the
threshold, to enter and live in a most direct and personal
way within the natural healing world of Mother Nature's
garden; an introduction to her scents, cycles, seasons,
colors and secrets.

These courses are not just the study of herbs and essential
oils. They are passage to a new realm of living; a way of
life empowering self-reliance and self-responsibility and
less dependence on others for your overall well being. They
are a step on the path of inner discovery and a means to
restore and return to body, mind and spirit what has been
lost in this outer world called reality."-----M.Y.

Blending
Class
"Jeanne Rose is such an amazing teacher. I took the
basic Blending class and in the beginning, I thought that it
might be over my head. But Jeanne Rose was an absolute
wonderful teacher. I feel blessed to have had the chance to
be a part of her class and to have the opportunity to tap
into her world of blending and aromatherapy. There
were so many things she taught at this class that no one
could ever read in a book. You have to be there to
experience it. I would like to thank her for teaching me, to
acknowledge anyone for a formula or a publication that I
might use, and to “do everything in moderation”."

Medicinal
Blending Class
"I am a Respiratory Therapist for over 20 years and am
an asthmatic. Because of asthma, I had to leave my work and
was on steroids, inhalers, oxygen, breathing machine. I have
been hospitalized so much in the past that I did not believe
that the simple formula that I made in Jeanne Rose’s
Blending class would have any affect or would ease my
labored breathing. I used a simple combination of Lavender (borneol),
Rosemary verbenone, Peppermint, and May Chang. It worked. I
could not believe how well it worked. I would never be
without this blend now. I keep it in my purse at all times.
Me, the trained Respiratory therapist used this simple
Jeanne Rose inspired blend and swears by it. Thanks to
Jeanne Rose and her fabulous class and knowledge."
-----DW of Wisconsin

"To
teach is to give a part of yourself; your knowledge,
research and experience to others. Jeanne Rose is a teacher
of the best sort, she gives a part of herself to every
student in every class."

"I
am and have been enjoying the aromatherapy classes that I
have attended (Tucson Aromatherapy and the Absinthe class in
SF); and I have been seriously anticipating one of your
herbal classes. I am going to be coming to many more of your
classes; probably as long as you are doing them! Please
never stop. I have never regretted choosing your courses
over any of the other home/on-line herbal college courses
that are out there. I absolutely love you to pieces!!!! I
wanted to take one of your SF class, but chose to put the
money I had right now on the herbal one in Chicago!! I am so
excited about going! See you there and thank you again for
everything.

and science to blending Essential oils.

Anyone who
has any interest in fragrance ought to take this class. It
is loaded with a lot of very relevant and important
information. ... GL

Aloha Jeanne,
I so enjoy 'visiting' you at your website. I marvel at how much energy
you have in your travels and teachings!

As I begin my 30th year of formulating, I want to thank you for your
Herbs and Things. It was a gift that opened my life to my passion with
plants and 'all things herbal' back in 1972.

Sending you much love and blessings from paradise,
------Alexandra

"Hi everyone. A few months ago I completed the Herbal Studies Course and I just wanted to write a note about it. The Aromatherapy & Herbal Studies Course has been wonderful and so very informative. I have learned so very much and it has only increased my desire to learn more. I appreciate Jeanne's patience with the time it took me to finish as well as the ability to talk with her whenever I had a question, or just knowing I could pick up the phone to discuss something was great. I intend to pursue working with two other herbalists in my area so I can complete the Master Herbalist portion of the course. The studies have enhanced my life and I find herbs and essential oils are so woven into the structure of my daily life that I can't imagine how "empty" it was before. Thanks Jeanne!"
